-fpic code that damages symbol locations at runtime.
The only know occurance in our tree (src and ports) was locatime.c,
which was just changed to generate code that doesn't trigger the
problem.
This is a workaround, the real cause is that our gas doesn't
understand code our gcc generates for some -O -fpic code. They are
expected to be back in sync soon, but until then (including
4.0-RELEASE) we need to prevent people from using bad -fpic code.

I had resisted this for a while because I didn't want to take these
file off the vendor branch. But it turns out they were already off
the vendor branch anyway.

This fixes the endless loop the assembler gets in when it is trying to
decide how big part of the exception handling table should be on the Alpha.
This version of this file allows qradiobutton.cpp from qt and widget.cc
from kdelibs11 to be compilable.
when linking large shared libraries where the linker missed out some of
the dynamic relocations from the output. This prevents libqt from linking
properly among other packages.

Teach it about the FreeBSD equivalent, because there are some funny things
going on with -rpath that I can't quite get a handle on. It looks like
setting an rpath on a new shared object overrides all the implicit
DT_RPATH's from the dependencies, causing them to fail at link time
(but not runtime).
"lorder" command.
GNU rejected this change because they felt it would be an unacceptable
incompatibility to change the output format at this point -- even
though it was wrong to begin with.
